Hi @KatrinaE, thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to see a section to manually log blood pressure. I've moved it into a similar suggestion which has been updated as "Under Consideration". I hope to see you around.

One app to rule them all - PLEASE?  Been a fitbit person since they first came out.  Love them still wear the versa.  But I have to use samsung health to keep track of blood pressure and blood sugar. I've been watching this thread forever. Not even asking the app to link to a blood pressure monitor (samsung health does but I usually just enter it manually) or a blood sugar monitor.  Just a tile where we can track blood pressure and blood sugar.  Hell it can be the same tile.  Please?

It is really important to be able to add blood pressure tracking to the fitbit app on the phone. At minimum this could allow manual data entry and generate a basic graph over time. At its best such an app would interface with third part or Fitbit branded blood pressure measuring devices.

As a user I want to be able to log my daily BGL readings. I also want to see Daily/Weekly
averages either in numeric or graph format on my Dashboard.
I also want to see a field for Sugars in the Food Log section along with the other Daily Totals.
Where possible this should come from the existing foods db since the field already exists.

i too have moved to Samsung Health so I can track blood glucose and blood pressure. it would be unwise of Fitbit not to add these features to the dashboard.

It would be awesome if there was a feature on the app to enter your blood sugar reading in order to track it. Not a device that connects, but just a place to enter your reading just like entering your weight or water intake.

I think this would be easy to develop. A lot of people have to take their blood pressure daily. I’m recommending being able to track it the same as my mood, my body temp, weight, etc. Manually being able to enter it on the app would be so helpful. Much more than my mood.

As a diabetic, it would be very useful to be able to record my blood sugar levels on the app, recoding time and mgdl. I imagine that this could work the same way as recording diet or exercise manually. Please add this.

@Lladybug   It is already there.  If you don't have the tile on phone app,

Discover > Health & Fitness Stats > Blood Glucose  to add it to 'Today' screen.

Thank you. Perhaps this time FitBit will be able to create a way to accommodate those thousands (perhaps millions)of FitBit users who are diabetic.

For shame on you Fitbit. That you even bothered to give your customers a forum telegraphs engagement.

 

Now explain why you have utterly ignored the vast pool of customer requests for AT A MINIMUM a manual entry of the various data points MOST of your customer base is needing to track alongside all the good things you DID put into the product.

 

Blood Sugar Dailies

 

Periodic LDL/HDL scores. 

 

You know, blood panel feedback from our health providers.

 

Get off your **ahem** and add this feature!

Now add back blood pressure.  We used to have this and it was very useful to keep track in between doctor visits.
